- Lot Description
Okito (Tobias Bamberg). The Great Raymond?s Aerial Fishing. New York: Okito, ca. 1908. Finely made bamboo fishing pole facilitates the famous feat of Dr. Nix known as Aerial Fishing. The line is cast over the head of the audience and from its baited end appears a live, wriggling fish. Two more fish are caught in succession. Bamboo and metal with three compartments for fish. Owned and used by the Great Raymond. 94 ?? long (assembled). Separates into three sections for packing. Bamboo and metal show wear, but overall very good. Rare. (See Rauscher, The Great Raymond, page 292. Okito built similar fishing rods for Thurston and other contemporaries, yet this is one prop he manufactured in limited quantities; there are certainly fewer examples of his Aerial Fishing rods than his more famous Checker Cabinets, for example.)
